Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker and Nerlens Noel are just some of the players that took to the Blake Arena floor as part of the Hoophall Classic in recent years. Noel is now a rookie with the Philadelphia 76ers while Wiggins and Parker are beginning their collegiate careers at Kansas and Duke, respectively.

The list of notable Hoophall Classic alumni grows year by year. After the schedule was released on Monday, several players making the trip to Springfield this January will someday join the ranks of the best players to participate in the yearly showcase.

The four best players in the Rivals150 ranking for the 2014 class will play in the 2014 Hoophall Classic.

Returning this season will be the consensus No. 1 player in the nation, 6-foot-11 center Jahlil Okafor from Whitney Young High (Ill.). In last year's event Okafor had with 26 points, seven rebounds and three blocks in an 85-52 win over Long Beach Poly. He should attract some high-profile coaches, as the Chicagoan has narrowed his list of potential college choices to Baylor, Duke, Kansas and Kentucky.

The No. 2 overall player, Prime Prep (Texas) point guard Emmanuel Mudiay, who committed to Larry Brown and SMU in August, will play on Saturday night in a matchup with fellow five-star guard JaQuan Lyle and Huntington Prep (W.Va.).

The last games on Monday, the final day of the five-day event, will feature the No. 3 and 4 ranked players according to Rivals. Curie High (Ill.) center Cliff Alexander makes his first appearance at the Hoophall Classic in a game against Montverde Academy (Fla.). Mater Dei High (Calf.) wing Stanley Robinson wraps up the 2014 version of the Hoophall Classic against Ss. John Neumann Goretti High (Pa.).
